abstract = "The molecular mechanism of gamma-ionizing radiation (IR) resistance of human prostate cancer cells PC-3 is not known. Since low-LET-IR effects are primarily achieved through generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), IR-induced expression of ROSmetabolizing antioxidant enzymes, Mn- and CuZn-superoxide dismutase (Mn- and CuZnSOD) and catalase (CAT), and their upstream regulator transcription factor NFκB was followed. Significant elevation of both SODs was found in cells irradiated with 10- and 20 Gy, while CAT and NFkB expression was unchanged. Since, such conditions lead to accumulation of H2O2, it is concluded that radioresistance of PC-3 cells may emerge from positive feed-forward vicious circle established between H2O2 activation of NFκB and elevated MnSOD activity.",
